Yeah, this is a check that is done before compilation of QuickFIX becau=

some systems have type_info in the std namespace while some have them i=
n
the global namespace.  Looks like this is failing because the examples
configure isn't doing the same check.  The base configure is pretty muc=

totally isolated from the examples because we wanted the examples to be=

done from the users perspective.  I've added the same test into the
examples configure and that should fix it.  Alternatively you could hav=

defined TYPEINFO_IN_STD on the command line or in config.h.

Yeah, as you can no doubt tell, we only ever ran that example under
windows.  I made the change with the forward slashes and added a run_ba=

shell script which uses unix semantics.  I have to say the application
looks quite a bit nicer on linux than it did on windows!
